But if it die, it bringeth forth 8 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,960 Speaker 3: much fruit. And I want to thank Charlie for his 9 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:56,319 Speaker 3: sacrifice because much fruit is going to be realized now. 10 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 4: I want you to know that Charlie right now is 11 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:04,320 Speaker 4: in heaven. Not because he was a great husband and father, 12 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,759 Speaker 4: Not because he saved millions of kids out of darkness 13 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 4: on college campuses, not because. 14 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 5: He changed minds and chased votes to save the country, 15 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 5: not because he. 16 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 4: Sacrificed himself for his savior. Charlie Kirk is in heaven 17 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 4: because his Savior sacrificed himself for Charlie Kirk. 18 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 6: But the main thing about Charlie and his message, he 19 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 6: was bringing the Gospel to the country. He was doing 20 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 6: the thing that the people in charge hate most, which 21 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 6: is calling for them to repent. 22 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 7: I believe Charlie is still urging us on, urging us 23 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 7: not to sit back, not to be quiet, but to 24 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 7: carry on his mission forward loudly, proudly, and with the 25 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 7: same conviction he showed. 26 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 5: Sacrifice is a gift. 27 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 8: Sacrifice is that last full measure of devotion for God, 28 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 8: for country, and for his people. 29 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 5: We will devote the rest of our lives. 30 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 9: To finishing the causes for which Charlie gave his last 31 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 9: measure of devotion. You cannot defeat us, you cannot slow us, 32 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 9: you cannot stop us, you cannot deter us. 33 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 5: We will carry Charlie and Erica in our heart. 34 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 2: But we go forward, strengthened by his faith and boasted 35 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 2: by his courage, and inspired by his example, to defend 36 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 2: the country he lived for. 37 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 10: You see, Charlie Kirk was a true believer for the 38 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 10: cause of freedom, for the power of young people, belief 39 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 10: in our republic and our founding principles, in America first 40 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 10: and make America great again. But more importantly, he was 41 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 10: a true believer. Only Christ is King, our Lord and Savior. 42 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 2: The lesson of Charlie's life is that you should never 43 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: underestimate what one person can do with. 44 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 5: A good heart. 45 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 2: A righteous cause, a cheerful spirit, and the will to fight, fight, fight. 46 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 11: Charlie lived what our founders envisioned.

But I think it's very fitting that 89 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 16: you have the Monday after that powerful, powerful memorial to 90 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 16: his life and legacy.

I couldn't. It's like 95 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 8: you were buzzing last night. There was so much kinetic 96 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 8: energy in that room. It was a revival energy and 97 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 8: helping assist and build Turning Point USA in these events 98 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 8: over the last decade or so. 99 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: The magnificence of the team here. 100 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 8: Blake is here, obviously, but Blake is just a representation 101 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 8: you yourself as well of the architecture that Charlie put forward. 102 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 8: There is no group on Earth, political or otherwise that 103 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 8: could have pulled off a one hundred thousand person in 104 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 8: person memorial, including the vast majority of cabinet secretaries, executive offices, governorships, 105 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 8: members of Congress, senators, world leaders, richest man on Earth 106 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 8: Elon Musk, arguably the most powerful private civilian on Earth. 107 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 8: Elon Musk all in attendance yesterday. It is an impossibility 108 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 8: for nation states to be able to pull that off, 109 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 8: like small countries in Europe wouldn't be able to do that. 110 00:07:58,440 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 16: They wouldn't get the permit. 111 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 8: To do it with the of the with the full 112 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 8: force of the Swiss government. 113 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: They couldn't pull that off. 114 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 8: What And I just want to like take a giant 115 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 8: step back and perhaps we have some some imagery that 116 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 8: the producers could play of the size of the audience, 117 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 8: the scale of the audience. Not only were the rafters filled, 118 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 8: not only were was the floor filled where you don't 119 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 8: wouldn't get that normally in an NFL game or an 120 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 8: NBA game, right, or a professional hockey game. The field 121 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 8: is for the players, right, and there's just a handful 122 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 8: of them. 123 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 1: But also the behind the stage was filled. 124 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 8: Let me explain that these are people who are sitting 125 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 8: maybe you could see it right here. These are people 126 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 8: who are sitting that can't see the program, but they're 127 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 8: still there to just stare at a wall. This there's 128 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 8: an overflow room also that was at near capacity. Another 129 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,439 Speaker 8: minor league sports arena. 130 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 16: Yes, that was at the Desert Diamond. It's the former 131 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 16: NHL Arena and it was its neighboring State Farm Stadium, 132 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 16: and it was filled. 133 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 8: The energy was unlike the Super Bowl, unlike a sporting event. 134 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 1: It was spiritual in nature. 135 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 8: It was so kinetic because the room was so packed 136 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 8: and so filled and as far as I could tell, 137 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 8: and I know this actually is a matter of fact. 138 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 8: Not a single window broken, not a single Molotov cocktail throne, 139 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 8: not a single fist ever thrown in anger, No fights, 140 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 8: no burning buildings. 141 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: No attacks on cops, no attacks on our nation. Nothing 142 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: but a. 143 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 8: Peaceful memorial, the largest perhaps on earth, perhaps in American history, 144 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 8: filled with prayer, mourning, forgiveness, and a call for righteous justice. 145 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 8: That is the difference between two ideologies, two directions for 146 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 8: Western civilization, and a profound, magisterial remembrance of Charlie's legacy. 147 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 8: It is precisely as he would have wanted it. And 148 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 8: I want to jump just one more story in. Because 149 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 8: I was backstage, I got to see a lot of interactions. 150 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 8: I got backstage front stage, I was seated amongst all 151 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 8: the cabinet secretaries, got to see a lot. Elon Musk 152 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 8: came by a couple times, and I just want to 153 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 8: use Elon Musk as a as a example of the 154 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 8: power of Charlie's legacy. Elon Musk and Donald Trump had 155 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 8: a bit of a falling out. Maybe you've heard of it, 156 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 8: and that sucked, especially for guys like Charlie who were 157 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 8: coalition builders. Charlie Kirk was thanked on stage by Donald 158 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 8: Trump himself for bringing together RFK Junior and MAHA Movement. 159 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 8: Donald Trump says, Charlie created MA. I don't think Charlie 160 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 8: ever will get the credit that he deserved for doing that. 161 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,319 Speaker 8: But also, Charlie Kirk brought together massive coalitions of well, 162 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 8: at any turning point event, you can find Candice Owns, 163 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 8: Ben Shapiro, Antucker, Carlson sharing the same stage. Right, Maybe 164 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 8: not together, but they're all there right to get an 165 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 8: opportunity to project their worldview. 166 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 12: Right. 167 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 8: Charlie was constantly doing that, constantly bridging gaps, constantly fusing 168 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 8: together because he realized that if we don't hang together, 169 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 8: we will surely hang separately, which is exactly what Elon 170 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 8: must told me. So backstage, Elon Musk embraces Erica Kirk 171 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 8: and she's crying in his arms and they're hugging, and 172 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,839 Speaker 8: it's really profound. This was after the speeches, this was 173 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 8: after the program, and this is the words that Elon 174 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 8: Musk said to us in this small little group with 175 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 8: Erica Kirk, and he said, he said, like, this is 176 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 8: why I was proud to sit with. This is what 177 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 8: he called Trump my president today. He accepted Trump's in 178 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 8: imitation to go up there, and he's the majority of 179 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 8: the event. Elon must sent sitting there with Donald Trump 180 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,679 Speaker 8: chewing it up. Everyone says, can see the here's the 181 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 8: photos of Elon embracing Erica, and then there are photos 182 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 8: of Elon with Trump and they seem to be having 183 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 8: a great time. 184 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: Dana White also there. What a profound not only. 185 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 8: Was the size and scope of this and the peacefulness 186 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 8: of it, a profound eulogy for Charlie in his memory, 187 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 8: but the cornerstone of it all to unite the world's 188 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 8: most powerful, richest private civilian with the world's most powerful 189 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 8: public figure, Donald Trump. Charlie said, in this chair right here, 190 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 8: he hoped that it happened. There's a clip that went 191 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 8: viral yesterday, Charlie saying, I pray, I pray that Elon 192 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 8: Musk and Donald Trump reconcile, and they did so at 193 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 8: Charlie's funeral in Charlie's memory. A profound and beautiful example 194 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 8: of what Charlie constantly was doing for our movement. And 195 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,599 Speaker 8: he fused together the greatest schism that we've seen in 196 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 8: the in the nascent Trump administration. 197 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: He just fixed Trump and Elon to get there. We 198 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 1: saw it live, and it's like. 199 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 8: The power of Charlie crying out, I mean, after death, 200 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 8: crying out in the still, the power of Charlie, like 201 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 8: bringing together these tectonic forces that should not reconcile. 202 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 1: These are two stubborn men. These are two men that 203 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: don't need each other, you know, honestly. 204 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 8: But it's but Elon Musk told me this. He hugs 205 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 8: Erica Kirk, he looks to all of us and he goes, 206 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 8: if we don't hang it together, we will surely hang separately. 207 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 8: So let us unite. I was proud to sit with 208 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 8: my president tonight. That's what Elon told us. That's what 209 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 8: Elon told us backstage. And so again, just as a 210 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 8: little behind the scenes vignette, here a what you watched yesterday. 211 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 8: What tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions of 212 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 8: people saw yesterday, definitely hundreds of millions saw yesterday was 213 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 8: a beautiful encapsulation eulogizing and memorial to Charlie, with his 214 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 8: energy pulsing through every bit of it. 215 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 16: I mean, as beautifully said, I hadn't heard that that 216 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 16: part about Elon, so I love that, and you know, 217 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 16: I know and Blake knows how badly Charlie wanted to 218 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 16: see them recon soe so many times we discussed it, 219 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 16: and Charlie, you know, he Elon kind of flew off 220 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 16: the handle a little bit when it first happened, and 221 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 16: Charlie was very reserved. He didn't hop on it because 222 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 16: he was like, I believe they're going to come back together. 223 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 16: And yesterday Charlie was proved correct as he often is. 224 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 16: And I mean, and it was funny. I tweeted about 225 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 16: it and I said, I hope that these two men 226 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 16: are saying to each other for Charlie. And then about 227 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 16: two hours later, Elon Musk tweeted an image of him 228 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 16: and Trump talking and he said, for Charlie. 229 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 15: And yeah, and. 230 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 16: We'll get into that, but we have to. We're going 231 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 16: to take a break from radio. The stream will continue. 232 00:14:38,440 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 16: Hang right there, all right, welcome back for the stream. 233 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 16: And there is our brother's chair, Charlie's empty chair. Benny, 234 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 16: you get the honor today of being seated right next 235 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 16: to Charlie's chair. Let's so, do you Nick, By the way, 236 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 16: it's it's sort of I mean this we added this 237 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 16: this seat location for these streams because you know, We're 238 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 16: just gonna all pile around Charlie, which is very Charlie. 239 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 16: Uh but but yeah, Benny, I mean, please, you were 240 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 16: you were continuing and I cut you off, so you reflect. 241 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 16: I mean, you saw it. 242 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 8: You ever seen you ever seen Elon Musk convert to Christianity. 243 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 8: We're going to see that. I think that Elon Musk, 244 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 8: what do you what do you think? Blake probably agnostic 245 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 8: at best, perhaps probably he. 246 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 16: Was openly agnostic. 247 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 17: Actually, you know he would say that because he was 248 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 17: more of a science based guy, as he would say, 249 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 17: and you know, he wants to see evidence and proof 250 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 17: of things before it happens. But you know, the amount 251 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 17: of people in that room yesterday, I mean like I 252 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 17: could feel like I was genuinely convinced. 253 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 16: That the Holy Spirit was in the room yesterday. 254 00:15:58,280 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 5: And I saw Elon. 255 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 17: Tweet uh uh give as we forgive those right, And 256 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 17: I ran up to you and showed you immediately you 257 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 17: were in the middle of talking to somebody. 258 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 16: But I was so excited. I'm like here, like look 259 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 16: at this. Andrew was so so my mind blew my mind. 260 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 16: And I think we all felt. You know, Tucker had 261 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 16: that great line and he said the Holy spirit was 262 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 16: was what did he say? It was humming like a 263 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 16: tuning fork in there, and you could just I mean, 264 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 16: you could not help but step into that room and 265 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 16: feel that. And I think probably I mean, there was 266 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 16: our our production team that was running all the streams. 267 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 16: They they logged well over one hundred million streams and 268 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 16: that was just the ones they knew about. That's not broadcast, 269 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 16: that's not obviously clips of the of the memorial, that's 270 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 16: none of that stuff. That was that they could just 271 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 16: log over one hundred million. That number will grow. It 272 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 16: will end up being probably close to about a quarter 273 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 16: or a quarter of a billion, uh, when it's all 274 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 16: said and done. But what do you think? I mean, 275 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 16: you were kind of observing I I saw you a 276 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 16: couple of times. Blake was just kind of taking it 277 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 16: all in. And sometimes Blake can be very kind of 278 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 16: in your your thing you're doing, and you were unusually 279 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 16: sort of observant of the wider moment. I saw you 280 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 16: a couple of times. What was it like for you, Blake? 281 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 18: You know, I think the moment I think a lot 282 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 18: of people who are there going to remember is actually 283 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 18: right at the start, before any of the speakers come 284 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 18: out it's just right at the beginning where they had 285 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 18: all the different signs that were color coded, and I 286 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 18: remember they they chose the signs very well. It was 287 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 18: like one of them was the you know here I 288 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 18: am Lord send me. Another was the I think well done, 289 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 18: my good and faithful servant, Like they had a good 290 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 18: selection of what was on the signs and everyone just 291 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 18: holding them. The music is just the strings, there's no 292 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:45,199 Speaker 18: one singing or anything, and it goes for man, it 293 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 18: felt like it was five plus minutes. Everyone just sort 294 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 18: of sitting there like marinating in the moment, and that. 295 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 16: Felt very powerful. I saw a lot of people crying. 296 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 18: I think I teared up during it, and you had 297 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 18: several moments of that throughout the night. 298 00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 16: It was an entire. 299 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:04,880 Speaker 18: Event, very rich with meaning, very rich with common feeling, 300 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 18: and I think everyone there is going to remember it 301 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 18: the rest of their lives. 302 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 16: Yeah, and you were going around interviewing people, Nick, what 303 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:13,239 Speaker 16: were people telling you? 304 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 17: Well, I mean, first off was really interesting to me 305 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 17: where the amount of people like turning Point Action yesterday 306 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 17: was super busy going around registering voters, like people want 307 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 17: to get involved. These are people that didn't really pay 308 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 17: too much attention to politics. Before maybe they did casually, 309 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 17: but now all of a sudden this happened. 310 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 1: It woke a lot of people up. 311 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:35,880 Speaker 5: It scared them and shook them to the core. 312 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 16: You know. 313 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 17: I've been speaking to my mother as well, who she's 314 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 17: been a lifelong Democrat, loved Obama when I was growing up. 315 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 17: And she called me and was like almost in tears 316 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 17: because she didn't know Charlie before. She didn't know anything 317 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 17: about Charlie. And then she started seeing all the clips, 318 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 17: she started seeing the highlights from him doing these college 319 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 17: tours and stuff, and now she wants to get back 320 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 17: into the church and she wants me to start going 321 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 17: with her and such. She's like, I want to send 322 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,680 Speaker 17: you this, I want to send you a Bible I'm 323 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:09,640 Speaker 17: going to And it's just this unbelievable power that Charlie 324 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 17: has unleashed posthumously on the world, bringing people closer to God. 325 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 17: I would say it's in the millions upon millions of 326 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 17: people that have now just gone to church for the 327 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 17: first time over the past couple of weeks, or have 328 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 17: gone to church for the first time since I think 329 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 17: Eric has said since as a. 330 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 16: Child, you know, and I think there was this feeling, 331 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 16: you know, I said, in the immediate aftermath of Charlie's assassination, 332 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 16: there was this this surge, right, I could feel there 333 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 16: was a surge. You know, people were showing up, you know, 334 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 16: hundreds and hundreds of people were showing up in front 335 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 16: of the HQ, and there was vigils going on, and 336 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 16: I kind of prayed silently, I said, Lord, you know, 337 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 16: let this not be the end of it. Let this 338 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 16: not I hope that this is not just a flash 339 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 16: in the pan. And I'll tell you there's tons of 340 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 16: people in front of the building this morning just paying 341 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 16: their respects. And I think this memorial and this Red 342 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 16: Discovery re exploration of Charlie's actually what he said, not 343 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 16: what the media said about him, is going to mean 344 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 16: that this carries on much much longer than just you know, 345 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 16: these last eleven twelve days. We're going to welcome back radio. 346 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 16: Don't go anywhere, all right, Welcome back to the Charlie 347 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 16: Kirks Show. I'm Andrew Colvett, executive producer of this show. 348 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 16: I had the honor of speaking yesterday at Charlie's memorial 349 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 16: at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. The honor of 350 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 16: a lifetime and I got to bring our team up 351 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,440 Speaker 16: on stage, which was also an honor, and I got 352 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 16: a lot of great feedback from people just saying, you know, 353 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 16: bringing the team up was a master stroke. It was 354 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 16: so good, and it just it's exactly what Charlie would 355 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 16: have done, because Charlie loves this team. Probably spent more 356 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 16: time on a daily basis with the team that runs 357 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 16: the show than any other team because there were so 358 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 16: many teams, but this was his daily routine, and I 359 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 16: feel free to chime in black I. 360 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 18: Got I got a message from a friend who was asking, 361 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 18: who's this guy? And it was not a photo of me. 362 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 18: It was a photo of a Dallen on our tech team. 363 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 18: Because the profile he had a very powerful looking chin. 364 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 18: So congratulations Dowllan. 365 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 16: Good for you, buddy. 366 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 8: Have you ever heard have you ever heard the most 367 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 8: powerful leaders in the Western world all be apostles for 368 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 8: Christ on the same stage. 369 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 16: Thank you for. 370 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 8: This is the biggest This is the biggest apostolic event 371 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 8: since the times of Christ. 372 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 16: I believe, I. 373 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 8: Do there is some of the greatest reformation, given you know, 374 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 8: given technology and given the number of people that can 375 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 8: watch concurrently, right, Christ can speak to thousands on a hillside. 376 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 8: But there's no way to amply. You know, there's no 377 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,919 Speaker 8: way to digitally amplify it worldwide. Given the number of 378 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 8: watching in South Korea, I mean, we probably will never 379 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 8: get those numbers. But I think it's probably fair to 380 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 8: say that this service was seen by billions by the 381 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 8: time it's all said and done and gone worldwide, at 382 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 8: least pieces of it, right parts, snippets, videos and clips 383 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 8: on social media. 384 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: Billions saw it and there. 385 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 8: Wasn't a single speech that did not have Christ at 386 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 8: the center of the speech. 387 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: I believe that. 388 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 8: This, and you should contact the Guinness Book of World Records. 389 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 8: This is most likely Charlie's memorial service, the single largest 390 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 8: Apostolic event in modern history. 391 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 1: Well, I don't know if you guys saw this. 392 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 17: Somebody tweeted out a photo of you know, the monitors 393 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 17: for all the different news networks, every single major news 394 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 17: network in the Western world. 395 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 16: Was tuned in live, not cutting to any. 396 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 17: Commercials while these big speakers were going absolutely crazy. 397 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 16: And I will tell you I handled press for turning 398 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 16: point events historically, and so I sort of had to 399 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 16: on top of a number of other things that I 400 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 16: was doing, and my team did an amazing job. Shout 401 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 16: out to Aubrey. You did a phenomenal job, Aubrey Lage, 402 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 16: thank you so much for stepping up. Aubrey's just one 403 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 16: of those people that said, I want this, I want 404 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,199 Speaker 16: I know you can't focus on this like you normally do. 405 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,239 Speaker 16: I want to. I want you to trust me. And 406 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,120 Speaker 16: I said, Okay, Aubrey, it's yours. Don't mess it up. 407 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 16: And she I got so many compliments on the job 408 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 16: she did just kind of playing orchestra, you know, she 409 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,360 Speaker 16: was orchestrating the choir. She was it was a really 410 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 16: amazing job because there was so much press going on. 411 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,879 Speaker 16: But this is what we heard from the venue. Now, 412 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 16: I remember the venue does super Bowls, they do special 413 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 16: events all the time, and I will tell you they 414 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 16: said this was more press interest from around the world, 415 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,719 Speaker 16: not just America, than the Super Bowl or any other 416 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 16: special event they've ever been a part of this. And 417 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 16: I believe it is a very true fact to say 418 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 16: that the Gospel was just proclaimed to more people in 419 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 16: one singular event than at any other time in human history. 420 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 16: And it makes me remember Benny the verse. We he says, 421 00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 16: Jesus says, you will do even greater things than the 422 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 16: It's not that we are greater than Christ. Christ is king, 423 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 16: but you will do even greater things than these. And 424 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 16: everybody who had a hand in yesterday's event was a 425 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 16: participant in those greater things, because, as you said, we 426 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 16: have social media. We have this ability to spread the 427 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 16: message so far and so wide and so quickly, so 428 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 16: truly amazing to be a part of that. 429 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 8: It is hard to put if you go to a 430 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 8: lot of MAGA rallies, and we've been to you know, hundreds, thousands, 431 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 8: I'm safe to say we've been to some. You know 432 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 8: how big the rallies are based on the size of 433 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 8: the press rafter. And let me explain the press rafter 434 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,439 Speaker 8: yesterday was. We were on a football field. It was 435 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 8: thirty yards deep and the entire football field wide. That's 436 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 8: how much space was needed to simply handle the number 437 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 8: of cameras and on the ground reporters. Is this correct, Corvette, 438 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 8: I mean you'd have probably approved these dimensions. The size 439 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 8: of the press rafter took up a considerable portion of 440 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 8: the football field. It was in order to get the 441 00:24:58,320 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 8: amount of press in that wanted to do. 442 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 16: It was the biggest press rise or anybody had ever seen. 443 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:06,400 Speaker 16: And I talked to you know, President Trump's team backstage. 444 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 16: I talked to our physical production partners, They've never seen 445 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 16: anything like it. 446 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 17: Well, I talked to Aubrey actually because that's where I 447 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 17: got my press pass from. And I saw the stack 448 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 17: in front of her was like this of just press 449 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 17: passes and I'm like, my god, how many And She's 450 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 17: like it's in the hundreds. 451 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:20,919 Speaker 13: Oh. 452 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 16: And we had to cut. Just so everybody's aware, we 453 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 16: had to cut a lot because we originally were going 454 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,199 Speaker 16: to be able to put some overflow press into the 455 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 16: over desert diamond arena or whatever, and that ended up 456 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 16: knopping a possibility. So we could have we could have 457 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:40,200 Speaker 16: fit even more into the back and we just we'd 458 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 16: fire marshal stuff, footprint stuff on the floor. We had to. 459 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 16: We had to ultimately cut back, so there was some 460 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 16: some press that didn't even get in. But listen, we 461 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 16: we got in the line's share of the press. And 462 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 16: to God be the glory for Charlie, we pulled it off. 463 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 16: The team didn't sleep, And again, just what a testament 464 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 16: to Charles the legacy his leadership that the team rallied 465 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 16: the way they did. We are going to keep going 466 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 16: on the stream radio. Don't go anywhere. We'll be back 467 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 16: in a few minutes. All right, welcome back to the 468 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 16: Charlie Kirk Show. Now we're streaming.

I mean, I don't know what 475 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 16: it was at his peak, but I just got an 476 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 16: interesting tidbit of information that we had some partners do 477 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 16: a geotag of how many devices were in the general vicinity, 478 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,959 Speaker 16: and it was nearly three hundred thousand. It was two 479 00:26:56,040 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 16: hundred and seventy seven thousand devices were geot in that vicinity. 480 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 8: So for comparison in contact there when they geo tagged 481 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 8: what was the most famous MAGA rally of the twenty 482 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 8: twenty four election, the Madison Square Garden Rally. This is 483 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 8: every MAGA star. This is at Hulkgan and Elon and 484 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,439 Speaker 8: ever and kill Tony and all of them.

They were totally free speech. That 488 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 1: was ninety seven thousand. Wow, So that was that the paint. 489 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,239 Speaker 8: The full GEO tag for that, which is seen as 490 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 8: the penultimum MAGA rally, was ninety seven thousand. 491 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 16: So yeah, I. 492 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 17: Mean I walked outside. It was there most of the night, 493 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 17: covering like the growing size of the crowd. You had 494 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 17: people there the night before. It was in the hundreds, 495 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 17: which is still pretty good, especially when they very specifically 496 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 17: said nobody's allowed to stay overnight. He said, you're not 497 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 17: allowed to camp overnight. They're like, okay, so we're gonna 498 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 17: stand on the sidewalk instead.

It's 667 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 8: wild to tell you the importance of this moment for Erica. 668 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 8: And first off, I mean I said this during the break, 669 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,399 Speaker 8: but I think that that speech ranks among the top 670 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:40,320 Speaker 8: three most powerful speeches ever given in modern history without question. 671 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 8: Not only that, but she in that moment, ceased to 672 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 8: be Erica Kirk. She became something spiritual. She also did 673 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 8: it standing right here before this chair. 674 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 16: It was right where you're sitting. 675 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 1: And I'm not sure i'd even call that a speech. 676 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 8: I think i'd call that like a wife's private eulogy 677 00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 8: that she was able to share with all of us 678 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,279 Speaker 8: because of how important Charlie was to the world. That 679 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 8: was like less of a speech and more of like 680 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:08,359 Speaker 8: God speaking through her. I don't again, I've known Erica 681 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 8: and Charlie for a long time. 682 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:10,760 Speaker 1: I was at the wedding. We were all at their wedding, 683 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 1: like I am. 684 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 8: Seed their wedding, Like like I that wasn't like Erica's incredible. 685 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:22,760 Speaker 8: That was like something spiritual. That was God physically moving 686 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 8: through her and speaking through her. Because humanly you can't 687 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 8: forgive a monster and like that. Humanly you can't do that. 688 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,319 Speaker 18: And after it happened, it was a really beautiful people 689 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,720 Speaker 18: brought this up right away. Let's put up pick number seven. 690 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,360 Speaker 18: This is a tweet Charlie all the way back in 691 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 18: twenty fourteen. He was, you know, to be a Christian 692 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 18: means to forgive the inexcusable, because God has forgiven the 693 00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:49,200 Speaker 18: inexcusable in you and. 694 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 8: She shared Christ. She shared Christ. That was probably that 695 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 8: was the most christ Like thing that happened. A lot 696 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,439 Speaker 8: of people talked about Christ. The Secretary of War talked 697 00:37:57,440 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 8: about Christ right, very interesting. 698 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 16: Don Junior talked about and dank. 699 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 8: Memes, which is a first. But that was the most 700 00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 8: christ Like thing that happened on stage. I think everyone 701 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 8: will agree with that. The forgive of course, the forgiveness 702 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:17,880 Speaker 8: of the unforgivable right. And Erica shared Christ to one 703 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 8: of the largest audiences maybe ever gathered in human and 704 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 8: did the most christ like thing. And that again, the 705 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 8: most apostolic event in human history was that. And I 706 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 8: think that I'll if you will allow me. A lot 707 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 8: of people are saying, well, how dare Trump? You know, 708 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 8: saunter on stage afterwards and say, no, I. 709 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 1: Hate my enemies. I'm gonna cue my enemies like I 710 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 1: hate them. I want them to burn. 711 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 8: Right, because Trump went on and did that right in 712 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,240 Speaker 8: his own way, Trump bravado and said, oh I hate 713 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 8: my enemies. 714 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: I don't know how Erica can do that. 715 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 8: I want to take an opportunity to just say from 716 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 8: a Christian perspective and look at this from a biblical perspective, 717 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 8: because what was demonstrated in both those beaches, represented by 718 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 8: obviously Erica but then represented by Stephen Miller did a 719 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,399 Speaker 8: great job at this. Donald Trump did a great job 720 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 8: at this. Secretary War did a great job of This 721 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 8: is the personification of Romans thirteen. Romans thirteen, the apostle Paul, 722 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 8: who's very familiar with martyrdom, was there at the martyrdom 723 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 8: of Stephen that actually brought him to Christ. Writes about 724 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,880 Speaker 8: a properly instituted government set up by God, and that 725 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:28,480 Speaker 8: the government is there to institute safety and. 726 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 1: Security for the good and moral people of the nations. 727 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:35,160 Speaker 8: That God has set up the leaders of our land 728 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 8: in order to do that, and so God set up 729 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:41,720 Speaker 8: Trump in his administration to allow for security and family 730 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 8: flourishing and for the prospering of good and moral people. 731 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 1: And that God. 732 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 8: Gives the sword to the leaders of our principalities in 733 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 8: order to enact. These are the exact words terror within 734 00:39:55,760 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 8: evil men, to bring terror upon evil men. And that 735 00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 8: was what the Trump administration represented. That is pure Christian doctrine. 736 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 8: That is fundamental Christian doctrine about the establishment of the 737 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,759 Speaker 8: government so that the good may flourish. Now on a 738 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:15,319 Speaker 8: personal level. What Erica showed was what we must do 739 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 8: in our hearts in order to absolve ourselves and to 740 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 8: follow in the christ Like method of forgiveness in order 741 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,960 Speaker 8: to ensure that we are unburdened actually by evil. Evil 742 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 8: happens to us, we must unburden ourselves by following through with. 743 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 1: The power of Christ. 744 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 8: Erica shows that perfectly balanced, absolutely in perfect harmony by 745 00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 8: President Trump and his administration, saying that it is now 746 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 8: incumbent upon us, the rulers of this land, to institute justice. 747 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:48,680 Speaker 1: We do not have to forgive. 748 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:53,400 Speaker 8: We must enact justice, swift and severe justice upon evil 749 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,080 Speaker 8: men so that they are in terror. And that is 750 00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 8: perfectly fundamentally harmonious in the Christian worldview. 751 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:03,400 Speaker 16: Aali Stuckey actually said something that I and she's actually 752 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 16: gonna be hosting the show with me tomorrow, so that's exciting. 753 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 16: But she said, there's a big contrast between Erica's forgiveness 754 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 16: speech and Stephen Miller's destroy our Enemy speech, and that 755 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 16: was in quote I don't think you know, I can't remember. 756 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, did you help him write that place? 757 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 16: Yeah, you know, but she did it quotes. I mean, 758 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,439 Speaker 16: I don't think she met any disrespect to Steve. 759 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 19: It. 760 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:31,400 Speaker 16: It was just the tone was was, you know, distinct. 761 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,319 Speaker 16: She says, exactly as it should be. It is our 762 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,360 Speaker 16: job to forgive, not the governments. Christians give grace. The 763 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 16: government wields the sword Romans thirteen. We turned the other cheek. 764 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 16: The government punishes evil. Yes, And I mean you saw 765 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 16: that in very, very vivid detail on that stage yesterday, 766 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:55,160 Speaker 16: because to your point, personally, that was an inexcusable evil 767 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 16: that has been perpetrated against the world certainly, but against 768 00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 16: Erica specifically. Yes, And she unburdened herself. She said, I 769 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,439 Speaker 16: will not live with this hate. I will not live 770 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 16: with this this thing in my spirit. I'm going to 771 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 16: forgive as christ forgave me, because I will not let 772 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 16: it get in the way of me being with Charlie 773 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,759 Speaker 16: in heaven. And I will not let it get in 774 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 16: the way of me running turning Point USA and being 775 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 16: the new leader of this movement. And I just commend 776 00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 16: her for that, because, yes, I even when I heard that, 777 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:31,319 Speaker 16: my flesh, I felt my flesh like crawling because I 778 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:33,359 Speaker 16: didn't want her to forgive. I wanted her to like 779 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 16: get that fierce look in her eyes. You know that 780 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,680 Speaker 16: she has, which is just amazing, by the way, and 781 00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 16: I wanted her to look right in the camera and 782 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,399 Speaker 16: be like, we are going, you know, give me one 783 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 16: of the bullets in because Utah still has you know, 784 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 16: what is it firing squad. Give her one of the 785 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:50,880 Speaker 16: bullets and let her shoot him right in the you 786 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 16: know whatever. Anyways, the point is I wanted that. My 787 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:59,400 Speaker 16: flesh wanted that, but my spirit knew that the power 788 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 16: you talked about out. If you don't give people a 789 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:04,319 Speaker 16: way to grieve in this positive way, in a way 790 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 16: that uplifts Jesus, then it can turn dark. And what 791 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,719 Speaker 16: she did is she took all of that energy and 792 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,239 Speaker 16: she flipped it on Satan's head and said, you are 793 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 16: not going to win this one. We are going to 794 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 16: choose Christ, and God's love will be unleashed on this country. 795 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 8: Can we talk for just a moment about how this 796 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 8: is how you begin, This is how civil wars and 797 00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:29,200 Speaker 8: secretary and violence actually spirals into that failed state. 798 00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:31,160 Speaker 1: You have these. 799 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 8: Moments of political violence, you don't give anyone the capacity 800 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:33,919 Speaker 8: to grieve. 801 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 1: There is no justice. 802 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,840 Speaker 8: There is no shooter found, no one is brought to justice, 803 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 8: no greater terrorist network is brought down. I talked a 804 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 8: lot with Cash Motel and Dan Bongino yesterday. I'd love 805 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 8: to share that on the show. I know we're up 806 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 8: against a break, but just another massive shout out to 807 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:50,760 Speaker 8: the team at turning point of the team at Charlie 808 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:54,480 Speaker 8: Kirk Show and Charlie's Corps here at giving the country 809 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 8: an ability to grieve in a peaceful and in a 810 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:01,439 Speaker 8: productive way. Because what happened there yesterday was people saw 811 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:03,919 Speaker 8: that this isn't just pain and loss that can carve 812 00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 8: a hole in your heart and make you into a 813 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:09,920 Speaker 8: dark person. This is something that can be uplifting actually, 814 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,880 Speaker 8: and can bring the movement forward and can consolidate a movement, 815 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 8: and that's healing for a nation. 816 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 16: One hundred percent. And Charlie, I mean, Blake knows this. 817 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:19,960 Speaker 16: Charlie preach more than anything to young people, be a 818 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 16: part of something bigger than yourself. Do not get sucked 819 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 16: down these dark holes on the internet.

And it'd be nice 986 00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:32,759 Speaker 8: to do one where people can come, they can feel 987 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:35,719 Speaker 8: the spirit, they can get like that that energy, that 988 00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:38,840 Speaker 8: revival energy that everyone wants to feel that everyone felt yesterday, 989 00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:40,280 Speaker 8: and then give a platform. 990 00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:41,759 Speaker 1: I think it's great for leaders to come. 991 00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:44,080 Speaker 16: We could we could do it on the anniversary of 992 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,799 Speaker 16: the memorial. Yeah screw the association, you know, like nine 993 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 16: to twenty one or at least the Sunday closest to 994 00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:53,719 Speaker 16: nine to twenty one. Yeah what And and I think 995 00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:55,759 Speaker 16: it's a beautiful idea and we I think I will 996 00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:58,480 Speaker 16: pursue it. And it's a you know, like we need 997 00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:00,759 Speaker 16: another event to produce around here, like we need a 998 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:04,400 Speaker 16: whole head. But it was it was I mean I 999 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:07,520 Speaker 16: agree with the idea that it we gave people a 1000 00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:09,920 Speaker 16: platform to preach Jesus and they did, and there was 1001 00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,320 Speaker 16: a tweet I saw from Mark Driscoll, who's a local 1002 00:53:12,320 --> 00:53:14,760 Speaker 16: pastor around here, and he was like, these elected leaders 1003 00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:18,320 Speaker 16: are preaching the gospel better than the professional. 1004 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:23,680 Speaker 8: Yes, yes, so one. That's very encouraging for a moral nation. Right, 1005 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,439 Speaker 8: for a nation where Trump wins seven out of seven 1006 00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:30,480 Speaker 8: swing states, ninety of the counties in America voted for Trump, 1007 00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:31,959 Speaker 8: Trump wins the popular vote. 1008 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:33,200 Speaker 1: We have a center right nation. 1009 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:35,440 Speaker 8: We have a moral It is still a morally good 1010 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 8: people in this country, and we never get a chance 1011 00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:42,760 Speaker 8: to see that in our leadership reflected ever, and even 1012 00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:45,920 Speaker 8: Trump himself right, like talking through his faith. I've never 1013 00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:49,120 Speaker 8: seen him like that, Like talking through his faith like yesterday, 1014 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:52,480 Speaker 8: like wrestling with some of the larger questions about Christianity 1015 00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:54,560 Speaker 8: and governance.

The reason I feel like I had 1192 01:04:40,800 --> 01:04:43,000 Speaker 21: to step in is because Erica came in the room 1193 01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:48,520 Speaker 21: and you know, obviously Charlie was upset. You were all here, right, 1194 01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:51,800 Speaker 21: So me being the remote guy in our headquarters in Harrisburg, PA, 1195 01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:54,960 Speaker 21: you know, just analyzing all the numbers. We can't have 1196 01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:56,960 Speaker 21: dead air, right, we all know that's the golden that's 1197 01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:59,480 Speaker 21: the golden goose. You cannot have you know, no one talking, 1198 01:04:59,600 --> 01:05:02,480 Speaker 21: and I feel everybody's attention was on Charlie, and so 1199 01:05:02,560 --> 01:05:04,120 Speaker 21: I was like, well, you know, I'm just gonna speak here. 1200 01:05:04,120 --> 01:05:05,960 Speaker 15: I didn't want to ruin the moment, and that's what 1201 01:05:06,120 --> 01:05:06,520 Speaker 15: I just said. 1202 01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:09,000 Speaker 21: You know, remember this moment, and I felt like everybody 1203 01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:11,240 Speaker 21: in the room was just you know, trying to tend 1204 01:05:11,240 --> 01:05:12,720 Speaker 21: to them because they were having that moment. 1205 01:05:12,880 --> 01:05:14,360 Speaker 16: So it was beautiful, you know, it was perfect that 1206 01:05:14,360 --> 01:05:15,880 Speaker 16: you stepped in. Go ahead, Benny. 1207 01:05:16,480 --> 01:05:20,200 Speaker 8: So President Trump talked about this last night, and it 1208 01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:24,800 Speaker 8: was very interesting his take on that clip, specifically because Trump's. 1209 01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:30,960 Speaker 1: Like, never seen Charlie like that. What was that crying? Crying? 1210 01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:32,240 Speaker 1: What was that about? 1211 01:05:32,760 --> 01:05:35,880 Speaker 8: But then I understood he was crying because of Maga 1212 01:05:36,040 --> 01:05:38,600 Speaker 8: and how beautiful our victory was, something like I'm paraphrasing. 1213 01:05:38,680 --> 01:05:41,520 Speaker 8: Perhaps we get the exact clip, but that's the sense 1214 01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:43,560 Speaker 8: of what Trump was saying, is that he's never seen 1215 01:05:43,560 --> 01:05:46,840 Speaker 8: his friend Charlie cry. He's never seen his friend Charlie 1216 01:05:46,880 --> 01:05:53,440 Speaker 8: emotional and breaking down because of emotion. And constantly I 1217 01:05:53,480 --> 01:05:56,400 Speaker 8: am asked, I'm sure you certainly, Andrew, having to fill 1218 01:05:56,400 --> 01:05:57,800 Speaker 8: in this chair, are. 1219 01:05:57,680 --> 01:05:59,080 Speaker 1: Asked this, how do you do it? 1220 01:05:59,160 --> 01:05:59,240 Speaker 16: Like? 1221 01:05:59,280 --> 01:06:02,160 Speaker 8: How are you still going? Because we've been basket cases, 1222 01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:05,280 Speaker 8: we get that all the time. Those closest to Charlie 1223 01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:06,760 Speaker 8: must understand something. 1224 01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:10,640 Speaker 1: That all of our actions. 1225 01:06:10,280 --> 01:06:12,560 Speaker 8: Those who worked with Charlie and those who built with Charlie, 1226 01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:16,680 Speaker 8: all of our actions are inspired by knowing that Charlie 1227 01:06:16,760 --> 01:06:20,200 Speaker 8: is in heaven looking down and would judge us ever 1228 01:06:20,360 --> 01:06:23,720 Speaker 8: so harshly if we were blubbering weaklings right now. 1229 01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:26,480 Speaker 1: Charlie would never allow it. 1230 01:06:26,760 --> 01:06:29,160 Speaker 8: Now, this is a moment that, of course Charlie's crying 1231 01:06:29,160 --> 01:06:31,680 Speaker 8: because he's happy. There was a moment that I lived 1232 01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:33,960 Speaker 8: through with Charlie where he was he should have been 1233 01:06:34,040 --> 01:06:36,520 Speaker 8: crying because he was sad, And that was the twenty 1234 01:06:36,520 --> 01:06:39,480 Speaker 8: twenty election, and everybody knows what a nightmare that was. 1235 01:06:39,720 --> 01:06:41,840 Speaker 8: There's no reasona'll re litigate it now, but it was 1236 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:44,400 Speaker 8: a nightmare and it meant very bad things obviously for 1237 01:06:44,480 --> 01:06:48,080 Speaker 8: Turning Point. Clearly, Turning Point was then under investigation. We 1238 01:06:48,160 --> 01:06:51,280 Speaker 8: all go under investigation. Charlie Kirk's social media was then 1239 01:06:51,320 --> 01:06:54,320 Speaker 8: about up for censorship and banning. That all's happened. We 1240 01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:56,400 Speaker 8: have all the documents for that. The entire way to 1241 01:06:56,440 --> 01:06:58,400 Speaker 8: the federal government came after Turning Point. 1242 01:06:58,200 --> 01:07:02,680 Speaker 16: Were come out now that we were investigated by the FBI. 1243 01:07:02,760 --> 01:07:05,200 Speaker 16: The FBI was surveilling Turning Point, yep. 1244 01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:07,600 Speaker 8: And that so clearly if there was a time to 1245 01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:11,320 Speaker 8: cry or be depressed, it was that moment, that dark 1246 01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:14,480 Speaker 8: moment everyone felt it was all off in twenty twenty, 1247 01:07:14,800 --> 01:07:20,600 Speaker 8: where that election, you know, collapsed right into darkness. And 1248 01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:22,880 Speaker 8: what did Charlie say. I know what Charlie said to me. 1249 01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:25,160 Speaker 8: I know what Charlie said to me, and it rings 1250 01:07:25,160 --> 01:07:27,600 Speaker 8: in my ears every single day. When you know, when 1251 01:07:27,680 --> 01:07:29,920 Speaker 8: you're like, man, this is tough, like getting getting through this, 1252 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:31,480 Speaker 8: we go fifty times harder. 1253 01:07:32,880 --> 01:07:33,640 Speaker 1: This is what he said. 1254 01:07:33,640 --> 01:07:35,280 Speaker 8: And I'm telling you, I've said that in the mirror 1255 01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:37,400 Speaker 8: every single morning for the last week and a half, 1256 01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:41,320 Speaker 8: you go fifty times harder for Charlie. He would not 1257 01:07:41,360 --> 01:07:43,240 Speaker 8: want us blubbering, He would not want us crying, He 1258 01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:45,760 Speaker 8: would not want us fearful in this moment. He would 1259 01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:48,480 Speaker 8: want us to go fifty times harder to continue that mission. 1260 01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:51,240 Speaker 8: And I think that's why that moment of him crying 1261 01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:53,840 Speaker 8: and breaking down is so profound, because we never saw 1262 01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:56,760 Speaker 8: Charlie like that, not even somebody who was a father 1263 01:07:56,800 --> 01:07:58,920 Speaker 8: figure to Charlie, which was President Trump, you know, and 1264 01:07:59,120 --> 01:08:03,640 Speaker 8: and Trump sitting there in wonder about it on stage 1265 01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:07,440 Speaker 8: was really something because you know, everyone's processed that, and 1266 01:08:07,480 --> 01:08:10,560 Speaker 8: those closest to Charlie understood what the mission is now. 1267 01:08:10,760 --> 01:08:13,480 Speaker 8: And Andrew, there's a massive compliment to you. You have 1268 01:08:13,600 --> 01:08:17,400 Speaker 8: really like forcefully carried forward what Charlie would have wanted 1269 01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:20,040 Speaker 8: to have had happen right now, which is, no, we 1270 01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:24,720 Speaker 8: hold the side up, we stand upright as men, and 1271 01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:25,960 Speaker 8: we go fifty times harder. 1272 01:08:26,360 --> 01:08:29,799 Speaker 23: You know, there's something Yeah, please and Charlie's last interview 1273 01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:32,639 Speaker 23: that he gave it was in Utah, just Salt Lake City, 1274 01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:35,400 Speaker 23: an hour before he went to the campus. I think 1275 01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 23: it was the last question he was asked as about 1276 01:08:37,439 --> 01:08:40,200 Speaker 23: one of his favorite quotes, and what I remember him 1277 01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:44,360 Speaker 23: saying was, this too shall pass, and that kind of 1278 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:48,040 Speaker 23: applies to the moment we're in now, but also to 1279 01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:50,400 Speaker 23: that moment where you were narrating over the victory, because 1280 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:55,040 Speaker 23: Charlie was saying that not only in that times of 1281 01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:56,880 Speaker 23: sorrow are going to pass, but to also keep you 1282 01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:59,080 Speaker 23: humble at the times of your greatest success. 1283 01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:01,160 Speaker 16: You need to go forward from that. 1284 01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:05,679 Speaker 23: And because that symposium there was really about entrepreneurship, primarily 1285 01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:08,200 Speaker 23: in the restaurant industry, there may not have been a 1286 01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:11,400 Speaker 23: lot of people who are familiar with Charlie or politically 1287 01:09:11,400 --> 01:09:13,280 Speaker 23: involved who have seen it, but it's. 1288 01:09:13,320 --> 01:09:16,000 Speaker 1: Absolutely worth a watch if. 1289 01:09:15,840 --> 01:09:19,040 Speaker 23: You want to see something about how Charlie viewed his 1290 01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:20,120 Speaker 23: role in this. 1291 01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:23,320 Speaker 16: Organization and you just inspired something. I mean, whether it 1292 01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:27,880 Speaker 16: was good times or bad times, Charlie would tell me, 1293 01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:31,400 Speaker 16: stay humble, stay close to Jesus. We got to stay 1294 01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:34,599 Speaker 16: at like if we'd had this huge success. I probably 1295 01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:38,639 Speaker 16: have dozens of this exact you know text in our 1296 01:09:38,680 --> 01:09:42,479 Speaker 16: in our chat, stay humble, stay close to Jesus, Stay humble, 1297 01:09:42,520 --> 01:09:44,840 Speaker 16: stay close to Jesus, like you know we thought we were. 1298 01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:46,840 Speaker 16: You know, after Trump won, it was all this did. 1299 01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:48,400 Speaker 16: He's like, we just need to stay humble when he 1300 01:09:48,439 --> 01:09:51,840 Speaker 16: stay close to Jesus. And that is Charlie and good 1301 01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:55,200 Speaker 16: or bad, and I will never ever forget it.

We boys, we are 1312 01:10:36,360 --> 01:10:37,479 Speaker 8: living through a moment. 1313 01:10:37,520 --> 01:10:40,320 Speaker 16: Well, this is what Erica and I have joked because 1314 01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:43,240 Speaker 16: we both you know, I think it started with Erica 1315 01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:45,080 Speaker 16: and Charlie. They would say this to each other and 1316 01:10:45,120 --> 01:10:47,599 Speaker 16: then somehow it filtered out and Charlie and I would 1317 01:10:47,600 --> 01:10:49,240 Speaker 16: start saying it to each other and just be like, 1318 01:10:49,439 --> 01:10:52,080 Speaker 16: this is not normal. You know what Charlie got on 1319 01:10:52,120 --> 01:10:55,280 Speaker 16: South Park. I was just like, this is not normal, man, Like, 1320 01:10:55,560 --> 01:10:59,120 Speaker 16: what's happening. You're just like a campus activist, dude, you 1321 01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:00,640 Speaker 16: know that it's not a lot archer than light. I 1322 01:11:00,680 --> 01:11:03,559 Speaker 16: don't know how that happened. This is not normal. And 1323 01:11:03,880 --> 01:11:06,000 Speaker 16: you know, Eric and I have had more than one chuckle, 1324 01:11:06,160 --> 01:11:08,960 Speaker 16: like through the tears. You know. We just look. 1325 01:11:10,720 --> 01:11:14,719 Speaker 8: Text and Charlie I go, I go, this is amazing, 1326 01:11:14,760 --> 01:11:16,320 Speaker 8: and he's like, is it a good thing? 1327 01:11:16,439 --> 01:11:20,280 Speaker 23: They nailed his hand to his hair was perfect, His 1328 01:11:20,360 --> 01:11:21,000 Speaker 23: hair was perfect. 1329 01:11:21,439 --> 01:11:21,879 Speaker 16: Cultural. 1330 01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:24,519 Speaker 1: I mean, people, this is cultural power. 1331 01:11:25,240 --> 01:11:27,639 Speaker 8: You know, there's a cultural power that you've always fought 1332 01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:30,920 Speaker 8: for that There's always been a core back before Turning 1333 01:11:30,920 --> 01:11:33,280 Speaker 8: Point even owned a building on this campus when they 1334 01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:36,240 Speaker 8: were renting, like Charlie when it was like ten seven 1335 01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:40,200 Speaker 8: people here, Like Charlie was talking about but like how 1336 01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:41,160 Speaker 8: important culture is. 1337 01:11:41,200 --> 01:11:42,599 Speaker 1: That's because he loved Andrew bright Bart. 1338 01:11:42,920 --> 01:11:45,920 Speaker 8: Andrew bright Bart would constantly tell Charlie in particular, but 1339 01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:48,719 Speaker 8: all of us, that politics is downstream of culture. 1340 01:11:48,760 --> 01:11:50,200 Speaker 16: Well, so you know, it's crazy about this, and I've 1341 01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:53,559 Speaker 16: said this before. Andrew Breitbart died in twenty twelve. Charlie 1342 01:11:53,640 --> 01:11:57,439 Speaker 16: was so Charlie had never met Andrew, but he was 1343 01:11:57,479 --> 01:12:00,840 Speaker 16: so it followed him and he was so inspired when 1344 01:12:00,880 --> 01:12:02,880 Speaker 16: he died that he started Turning Point? 1345 01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:05,040 Speaker 1: Is that really the next best point? 1346 01:12:05,080 --> 01:12:06,040 Speaker 16: That's the nextest point? 1347 01:12:06,479 --> 01:12:06,919 Speaker 1: Wow? 1348 01:12:07,400 --> 01:12:10,240 Speaker 16: And he told Larry O'Connor this because there was a 1349 01:12:10,240 --> 01:12:14,600 Speaker 16: Sea Pack panel with Matt Boyle and Larry O'Connor and 1350 01:12:14,640 --> 01:12:18,400 Speaker 16: I think Alex Marlowe, all of which worked for Andrew Breitbart. 1351 01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:22,040 Speaker 16: And so Larry was kind of like, why are you here, Charlie, 1352 01:12:22,360 --> 01:12:24,200 Speaker 16: And Charlie's like, I can't wait to tell you about it, 1353 01:12:24,240 --> 01:12:26,479 Speaker 16: Like call me and I'll tell you. And Charlie said 1354 01:12:26,680 --> 01:12:29,880 Speaker 16: to Larry, I followed him so closely, and when he died, 1355 01:12:29,880 --> 01:12:31,920 Speaker 16: I was devastated, and I knew that I had to 1356 01:12:31,920 --> 01:12:35,479 Speaker 16: start something. And so that is those little seeds that 1357 01:12:35,560 --> 01:12:38,120 Speaker 16: get planted in these moments. And so you can draw 1358 01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:41,360 Speaker 16: a direct line between Andrew Breitbart's death the beginning of 1359 01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:44,120 Speaker 16: Turning Point, and now with Charlie's death, you have to 1360 01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:47,640 Speaker 16: ask your scalp yourself, how many are going to be 1361 01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:50,800 Speaker 16: inspired to rise up and to push back against the 1362 01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:53,519 Speaker 16: darkness and against the lies and save this country and 1363 01:12:53,760 --> 01:12:56,120 Speaker 16: spread the gospel. I think it's going to be I 1364 01:12:56,120 --> 01:12:59,680 Speaker 16: think the harvest from Charlie's death is going to be 1365 01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:03,480 Speaker 16: multitudes magnitudes larger than what we saw with Andrew Breitbart. 1366 01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:06,200 Speaker 16: And I just don't see how there's any I mean, 1367 01:13:06,320 --> 01:13:09,120 Speaker 16: there's just not an option where that's not true. But 1368 01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:12,839 Speaker 16: I you know, for what it's worth, Charlie loved Andrew Breitbart. 1369 01:13:12,960 --> 01:13:16,680 Speaker 16: He always talked about culture. And you, Benny Johnson, you 1370 01:13:16,800 --> 01:13:19,960 Speaker 16: played a central role in this Kimmel thing, and we 1371 01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:23,759 Speaker 16: can wait for radio, but you. I was so proud 1372 01:13:23,760 --> 01:13:25,960 Speaker 16: of you. And I know there was some consternation about, 1373 01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:29,160 Speaker 16: you know, Brendan Carr and should the government be directly involved. 1374 01:13:29,160 --> 01:13:31,639 Speaker 16: I think there's you know, I had a tweet on it. 1375 01:13:31,760 --> 01:13:33,760 Speaker 16: You I think retweeted at BENNI thank you so much. 1376 01:13:33,800 --> 01:13:37,920 Speaker 16: But the point is that this was this is cultural power, 1377 01:13:38,080 --> 01:13:41,120 Speaker 16: because we're finally saying if this is not anti free speech. 1378 01:13:41,160 --> 01:13:44,320 Speaker 16: By the way, Jimmy Kimmel is not a victim. He's 1379 01:13:44,360 --> 01:13:48,160 Speaker 16: a liar. And he tried to pin this assassination on MAGA, 1380 01:13:48,439 --> 01:13:51,639 Speaker 16: which is a vile thing to do. And by the way, 1381 01:13:51,800 --> 01:13:55,200 Speaker 16: when you are on a network, you get extraordinary benefits, 1382 01:13:55,560 --> 01:13:59,599 Speaker 16: taxpayer funded benefits and privileges to uphold the public good 1383 01:13:59,720 --> 01:14:03,000 Speaker 16: line to the public about who committed this atrocity is 1384 01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:05,960 Speaker 16: not in the public good. And so ultimately this is 1385 01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:09,920 Speaker 16: the consumers and the affiliates and the network using their 1386 01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:14,599 Speaker 16: free speech to say no. And you played a central 1387 01:14:14,680 --> 01:14:18,040 Speaker 16: role in building that energy, and so hat tip to you, 1388 01:14:18,080 --> 01:14:18,759 Speaker 16: Benny Johnson. 1389 01:14:19,640 --> 01:14:21,840 Speaker 1: Well, this is exactly what Charlie would have wanted. 1390 01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:25,519 Speaker 8: I mean, I tell people this, and the easiest way 1391 01:14:25,560 --> 01:14:28,760 Speaker 8: to explain it is, Charlie took Cartman and made him his. 1392 01:14:28,720 --> 01:14:29,920 Speaker 1: Twitter profile photo. 1393 01:14:31,080 --> 01:14:35,000 Speaker 8: Charlie loved being able to reach into culture and affect 1394 01:14:35,000 --> 01:14:39,240 Speaker 8: it because he understood that core Breitbart tenant now doing 1395 01:14:39,439 --> 01:14:42,960 Speaker 8: now with Jimmy Kimmel, that's the exact same thing. What 1396 01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:47,439 Speaker 8: we are doing is holding accountable, flexing cultural power and 1397 01:14:47,479 --> 01:14:50,479 Speaker 8: a place where we had none. I mean, it's again 1398 01:14:50,600 --> 01:14:53,120 Speaker 8: inconceivable for us to think that Cartman would become Charlie 1399 01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:54,599 Speaker 8: Kirk for those of us who've known him. 1400 01:14:54,479 --> 01:14:56,000 Speaker 16: For a while, not my Bengo card. 1401 01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:59,560 Speaker 1: That is incredible. That's power. It's power. It's something we 1402 01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:01,840 Speaker 1: should brace. And that's what Charlie did. 1403 01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:05,320 Speaker 8: Many people are like, oh, Charlie owned now, they got them. 1404 01:15:05,320 --> 01:15:07,840 Speaker 1: No, Charlie loved it and embraced it. 1405 01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:10,960 Speaker 16: I called on paramount to put the episode back up, 1406 01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:13,120 Speaker 16: and a bunch of people wrote, conservatives. 1407 01:15:12,640 --> 01:15:14,280 Speaker 8: Should love this fight with Kimmel. We can talk about 1408 01:15:14,320 --> 01:15:16,720 Speaker 8: it next, like they should love this fight with kim 1409 01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:20,160 Speaker 8: You should embrace it. You should enjoy the melee instead 1410 01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:24,479 Speaker 8: of being totally incomplete weaklings and babies and doing what 1411 01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:25,639 Speaker 8: they always do, which is. 1412 01:15:25,600 --> 01:15:28,639 Speaker 1: Like, treat me nice, pet me like a dog. 1413 01:15:28,800 --> 01:15:30,799 Speaker 16: I'll be your little doggie, rule me harder. 1414 01:15:30,920 --> 01:15:31,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. 1415 01:15:31,720 --> 01:15:34,080 Speaker 16: All right, We're gonna be right back with radio. Don't 1416 01:15:34,120 --> 01:15:44,639 Speaker 16: go anywhere. Good, Welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show. 1417 01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:48,040 Speaker 16: We're having a great time here remembering our friend, our brother, 1418 01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:55,880 Speaker 16: an American legend. I pinched myself often knowing that this 1419 01:15:55,960 --> 01:15:59,880 Speaker 16: person I spent so much time with now belongs to his. 1420 01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:04,960 Speaker 16: He's not ours, He's not anybody's, I mean save Erica's, 1421 01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:11,080 Speaker 16: but in the children. But he is. He will live 1422 01:16:11,120 --> 01:16:13,519 Speaker 16: in it for eternity, in the hearts and minds and 1423 01:16:13,560 --> 01:16:17,120 Speaker 16: the memories of humanity on earth. And I'm not talking 1424 01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:21,879 Speaker 16: about his spirit. I'm talking about his message, his memory. 1425 01:16:22,040 --> 01:16:24,680 Speaker 16: Will it will not be snuffed out. I mean I 1426 01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:26,519 Speaker 16: saw this the White House post. I think it was 1427 01:16:26,560 --> 01:16:32,280 Speaker 16: like it was Lincoln and MLK and you know JFK 1428 01:16:32,520 --> 01:16:36,679 Speaker 16: and Charlie and I just I remember just thinking, how 1429 01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:39,519 Speaker 16: on earth is this real? How on earth? 1430 01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:42,639 Speaker 21: Yeah, let me echo real quick with the Vice president 1431 01:16:42,680 --> 01:16:44,519 Speaker 21: said he guys talked about it in the previous hour. 1432 01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:45,519 Speaker 16: But you know him. 1433 01:16:45,400 --> 01:16:48,240 Speaker 21: Going off the cuff and saying he's talked more about 1434 01:16:48,280 --> 01:16:51,080 Speaker 21: Jesus in the last two weeks than he has in 1435 01:16:51,080 --> 01:16:53,080 Speaker 21: his entire time in public life. 1436 01:16:53,400 --> 01:16:55,719 Speaker 15: That's me, right, I never talked about my faith. 1437 01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:57,400 Speaker 21: You know this is something. I mean, Charlie Wood text 1438 01:16:57,439 --> 01:16:59,200 Speaker 21: me certain things. You know, some of the Bible verses, 1439 01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:01,519 Speaker 21: different things from time the time. I am a Christian, 1440 01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:04,920 Speaker 21: but and I appreciated what you said, a degenerate loser. 1441 01:17:05,160 --> 01:17:07,080 Speaker 21: I loved you leading with that line because you know 1442 01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:09,200 Speaker 21: I've had my moments. You know, I've had cancel culture 1443 01:17:09,280 --> 01:17:11,400 Speaker 21: ma ater me. I've had different things happened. Charlie always 1444 01:17:11,439 --> 01:17:16,720 Speaker 21: stood by me. Loyalty very rare in politics. But I 1445 01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:17,519 Speaker 21: agree with what JD. 1446 01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:19,840 Speaker 15: Van said. I mean, I've talked more about my faith. 1447 01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:23,880 Speaker 21: I've thought about my relationship with Christ more in the 1448 01:17:23,880 --> 01:17:26,519 Speaker 21: past twelve days than I probably have in the last decade. 1449 01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:29,120 Speaker 15: God bless and I you know, I don't I'm. 1450 01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:31,679 Speaker 16: Not coming out, yes say yes, say. 1451 01:17:32,120 --> 01:17:34,280 Speaker 21: And to be in that room yesterday, I think for 1452 01:17:34,360 --> 01:17:36,400 Speaker 21: all of us, you know, especially me as somebody who 1453 01:17:36,520 --> 01:17:38,280 Speaker 21: you know, traveling all the time, struggle to get the 1454 01:17:38,320 --> 01:17:41,240 Speaker 21: church as an excuse, I'll put it out there. But 1455 01:17:41,360 --> 01:17:45,720 Speaker 21: to be in that room for the worship and the fellowship, 1456 01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:50,400 Speaker 21: it was such highs and lows of emotion, you know, 1457 01:17:50,479 --> 01:17:54,400 Speaker 21: seeing Charlie with all the you know, the different banners 1458 01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:58,040 Speaker 21: that they had up, the different videos. But then to 1459 01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:01,559 Speaker 21: join so many people worshiping from all over the country. 1460 01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:03,640 Speaker 21: I mean, that was probably the wildest part to me, 1461 01:18:03,760 --> 01:18:05,960 Speaker 21: is you had people coming in. I mean, and here's 1462 01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:07,920 Speaker 21: here's this is something that's weird for us to say. 1463 01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:10,960 Speaker 21: There were so many people we didn't know, right, That 1464 01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:11,720 Speaker 21: is what hit me. 1465 01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:13,479 Speaker 1: Because when you go to any of. 1466 01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:17,040 Speaker 21: Our events, even if there's twenty thousand people at America Fest, right, 1467 01:18:17,080 --> 01:18:19,800 Speaker 21: you know, so many people we've we've worked, we've interacted with, 1468 01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:23,120 Speaker 21: so many activists. I didn't know so many of the 1469 01:18:23,120 --> 01:18:25,320 Speaker 21: people that were there yesterday. You would run into these 1470 01:18:25,400 --> 01:18:27,519 Speaker 21: random folks and they were they were they didn't have 1471 01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:30,240 Speaker 21: a hotel room, and they would drove six six hours 1472 01:18:30,280 --> 01:18:32,559 Speaker 21: and just stay overnight and no plans. 1473 01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:34,840 Speaker 16: It was amazing. Everybody felt like a family though. And Brick, 1474 01:18:34,960 --> 01:18:37,720 Speaker 16: you you are a keen observer of kind of that 1475 01:18:37,920 --> 01:18:41,280 Speaker 16: confluence between the online and the I r L. Right, 1476 01:18:41,439 --> 01:18:45,639 Speaker 16: you you are, I see you. You are monitoring everything online, 1477 01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:47,640 Speaker 16: but yet you are a person that puts yourself in 1478 01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:51,280 Speaker 16: these real moments and you're always at these events. Tell 1479 01:18:51,360 --> 01:18:54,599 Speaker 16: us about that what what what did you see? Did 1480 01:18:54,760 --> 01:18:57,880 Speaker 16: did did real life match online? Did it? I mean, 1481 01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:01,360 Speaker 16: what were people saying? What were people thinking? From your perspective? Well, 1482 01:19:01,400 --> 01:19:02,719 Speaker 16: I can say that this this event. 1483 01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:05,280 Speaker 23: You know, sometimes I call myself a meme in real life, 1484 01:19:05,320 --> 01:19:07,400 Speaker 23: you know, when I've got the bricksuit on and I'm 1485 01:19:07,439 --> 01:19:09,519 Speaker 23: wearing that, you know, I'm a meme in real life. 1486 01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:11,840 Speaker 23: And that was really kind of the origin of how 1487 01:19:11,880 --> 01:19:13,400 Speaker 23: I started that. That's what I was trying to do. 1488 01:19:15,240 --> 01:19:17,559 Speaker 23: But you know, I went there the night before just 1489 01:19:17,600 --> 01:19:20,639 Speaker 23: to check it out. Nick in the first hour talked 1490 01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:24,599 Speaker 23: about how many people were there and they just they 1491 01:19:24,720 --> 01:19:27,639 Speaker 23: just they wanted to be there for Charlie. And this 1492 01:19:27,720 --> 01:19:31,519 Speaker 23: event was unlike any other event that I've been to, 1493 01:19:32,120 --> 01:19:37,760 Speaker 23: unlike Trump rallies, unlike the Madison Square Garden rally, Unlike Coachella, 1494 01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:41,000 Speaker 23: Unlike even Tulsa, where I camped out on the sidewalk 1495 01:19:41,040 --> 01:19:43,240 Speaker 23: with a bunch of other people for four days before. 1496 01:19:43,760 --> 01:19:46,800 Speaker 23: It was completely unlike that one thing, that one thing 1497 01:19:46,840 --> 01:19:49,520 Speaker 23: that was not there was any protesters. 1498 01:19:50,520 --> 01:19:51,760 Speaker 16: And inside even. 1499 01:19:51,720 --> 01:19:54,519 Speaker 23: I couldn't believe that inside, not one person at a 1500 01:19:54,560 --> 01:19:58,960 Speaker 23: stand up, not a heckle. It wasn't outside people wanted 1501 01:19:58,960 --> 01:20:00,479 Speaker 23: to get in and they were, you know, there was 1502 01:20:01,240 --> 01:20:04,960 Speaker 23: And as I was inside, you know, it wasn't just 1503 01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:06,400 Speaker 23: the building that was filling up. 1504 01:20:06,800 --> 01:20:08,840 Speaker 16: People's hearts were filling up. Well that's what I was 1505 01:20:08,880 --> 01:20:11,840 Speaker 16: gonna say. So here you have, Cliff, and I thank 1506 01:20:11,880 --> 01:20:15,800 Speaker 16: you for your just that the candor, Cliff and the vulnerability, 1507 01:20:15,880 --> 01:20:18,400 Speaker 16: and I think so many people were feeling that. Did 1508 01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:20,920 Speaker 16: you see that? Did you see that online? People saying like, 1509 01:20:21,160 --> 01:20:24,000 Speaker 16: I am so moved by this moment that I'm going 1510 01:20:24,040 --> 01:20:26,519 Speaker 16: to I'm looking at my faith all over you hear 1511 01:20:26,560 --> 01:20:28,479 Speaker 16: people talking about that. Did you see it online? 1512 01:20:28,640 --> 01:20:30,680 Speaker 23: I saw it online and I saw it beside me, 1513 01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:32,720 Speaker 23: and I saw it behind me, and I saw it 1514 01:20:32,760 --> 01:20:35,160 Speaker 23: in front of me. It was everywhere you look in 1515 01:20:35,200 --> 01:20:36,160 Speaker 23: that stadium. 1516 01:20:36,120 --> 01:20:40,519 Speaker 16: Praise God, everywhere. It's amazing you know, there is not. 1517 01:20:40,920 --> 01:20:42,519 Speaker 16: I mean, I've heard people say this a lot, but 1518 01:20:42,600 --> 01:20:45,080 Speaker 16: we didn't. We did. We didn't riot, we didn't burn down, 1519 01:20:45,479 --> 01:20:48,200 Speaker 16: We worshiped, we we we held prayer visuals. And there 1520 01:20:48,280 --> 01:20:51,120 Speaker 16: is no greater testament to the character of Charlie Kirk 1521 01:20:51,680 --> 01:20:54,760 Speaker 16: than that that one fact. And I'm so proud of it. 1522 01:20:54,880 --> 01:20:57,439 Speaker 16: You know, I want our country to be united. I 1523 01:20:57,479 --> 01:20:59,600 Speaker 16: think we need to confront the truth first, and we 1524 01:20:59,640 --> 01:21:02,519 Speaker 16: need to be honest about something. Benny, we are not 1525 01:21:02,640 --> 01:21:05,240 Speaker 16: the same. These two sides are not the same, and 1526 01:21:05,280 --> 01:21:07,320 Speaker 16: there's a huge gulf between them, and I want to 1527 01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:10,400 Speaker 16: get into it, but we're going to take a quick 1528 01:21:11,600 --> 01:21:15,280 Speaker 16: radio break. We'll continue on the stream. Everybody. We have 1529 01:21:15,880 --> 01:21:18,840 Speaker 16: Benny Johnson, the Great Benny Johnson, the great Brick Suit, 1530 01:21:18,880 --> 01:21:21,120 Speaker 16: and the great Cliff Maloney joining us here on the 1531 01:21:21,200 --> 01:21:23,519 Speaker 16: Charlie Kirk Show. Remembering our friend. We'll be right back, 1532 01:21:38,439 --> 01:21:40,719 Speaker 16: all right, Welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show. Andrew 1533 01:21:40,760 --> 01:21:45,519 Speaker 16: Covid in with my friends. I agree, yea go ahead. 1534 01:21:45,880 --> 01:21:48,559 Speaker 8: I'm a great follow up for that to continue our conversation. 1535 01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:55,519 Speaker 8: So Charlie Kirk is a generational leader and voice for 1536 01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:59,600 Speaker 8: our side. Let's just call it the right. He was 1537 01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:05,280 Speaker 8: stole and from us in an on air execution done 1538 01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:14,480 Speaker 8: by a political enemy of our side, the left, a transgender, antifa, 1539 01:22:14,920 --> 01:22:21,160 Speaker 8: radicalized associopath, porn addicted furry. This is who took Charlie 1540 01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:24,840 Speaker 8: from us. Let's just state the facts. Okay, So who's 1541 01:22:24,880 --> 01:22:27,320 Speaker 8: the aggrieved party here? Who's the party that had something 1542 01:22:27,360 --> 01:22:30,479 Speaker 8: horrible at well? The right we lost a generational leader, 1543 01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:35,519 Speaker 8: generational voice, and a future president obviously, so we. 1544 01:22:35,439 --> 01:22:40,240 Speaker 1: Are the aggrieved party. The left killed Charlie. Someone of 1545 01:22:40,280 --> 01:22:43,920 Speaker 1: the left killed Charlie. Now, let's look at the behavior of. 1546 01:22:43,920 --> 01:22:47,439 Speaker 8: The right and the left in the eleven days since 1547 01:22:47,560 --> 01:22:52,080 Speaker 8: Charlie's assassination. The right has prayed and mourned. 1548 01:22:51,840 --> 01:22:52,719 Speaker 1: And gone to church. 1549 01:22:54,720 --> 01:22:57,439 Speaker 8: And executed one of the single most uplifting events in 1550 01:22:57,479 --> 01:23:02,160 Speaker 8: American history, possibly the single largest apostolic event in human 1551 01:23:02,240 --> 01:23:06,240 Speaker 8: history yesterday. Now that's our ledger. 1552 01:23:06,640 --> 01:23:07,679 Speaker 1: Let's look at the left. 1553 01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:13,720 Speaker 8: In the seconds after Charlie Kirk's assassination, a Democrat voter 1554 01:23:13,800 --> 01:23:17,479 Speaker 8: his name is George Zinn, shouted that he was the 1555 01:23:17,479 --> 01:23:20,679 Speaker 8: shooter in order to let the actual shooter escape. 1556 01:23:20,760 --> 01:23:23,640 Speaker 1: Now he's been charged with a felony for this. He 1557 01:23:23,640 --> 01:23:26,040 Speaker 1: also had a ton of child pornography on his film, 1558 01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:29,599 Speaker 1: So Sick. He also charged with that. Okay, so whatever 1559 01:23:29,600 --> 01:23:30,400 Speaker 1: the hell that was. 1560 01:23:30,840 --> 01:23:33,240 Speaker 8: That's like the first act of the left, all right, 1561 01:23:33,600 --> 01:23:37,040 Speaker 8: was to try and assist in Charlie's assassin, okay, in 1562 01:23:37,080 --> 01:23:40,680 Speaker 8: getting away. Then the in the next twelve hours, a 1563 01:23:40,760 --> 01:23:44,040 Speaker 8: Fox News truck has a bomb placed on it by 1564 01:23:44,040 --> 01:23:47,160 Speaker 8: two Democrat voters and donors, and the bomb is lit. 1565 01:23:47,200 --> 01:23:49,200 Speaker 8: Thank god it didn't blow up. But that's a story 1566 01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:52,200 Speaker 8: that got buried because there was so much news happening. Yes, 1567 01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:57,120 Speaker 8: this happened in Utah, so Fox News affiliate. Since then, 1568 01:23:57,600 --> 01:24:01,160 Speaker 8: we've had four or five different charges of assault for 1569 01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:05,000 Speaker 8: people destroying, desecrating, or attacking people at Charlie Kirk memorials 1570 01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:06,680 Speaker 8: one right outside. 1571 01:24:06,960 --> 01:24:07,439 Speaker 1: That's right. 1572 01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:12,559 Speaker 8: You've had thousands of leftists, maybe tens of thousands, get 1573 01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:16,679 Speaker 8: fired from their jobs for celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination. Jimmy 1574 01:24:16,720 --> 01:24:21,639 Speaker 8: Kimmel is one of them. Other MSNBC contributors are among 1575 01:24:21,680 --> 01:24:26,640 Speaker 8: those numbers. You've had Brett Kavanaughs would be assassin come 1576 01:24:26,680 --> 01:24:30,559 Speaker 8: out as trans RFK bomb threat at RFK Junior's house 1577 01:24:31,640 --> 01:24:32,640 Speaker 8: in Washington, d C. 1578 01:24:34,120 --> 01:24:37,000 Speaker 1: And you've had just grotesque. 1579 01:24:36,520 --> 01:24:40,559 Speaker 8: Commentary from the left effectively either lying about Charlie Kirk's 1580 01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:46,080 Speaker 8: assassination or refusing to vote against it in Congress, with 1581 01:24:46,280 --> 01:24:49,479 Speaker 8: fifty eight members of the Democrat Party refusing to disavow 1582 01:24:49,520 --> 01:24:54,920 Speaker 8: political violence. So that has been their response to an 1583 01:24:54,960 --> 01:25:00,720 Speaker 8: assassination from their side. And so I am calling the 1584 01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:08,280 Speaker 8: from space the largest bs on this despicable narrative that 1585 01:25:08,320 --> 01:25:11,680 Speaker 8: it is a both sides problem. Polling doesn't show that, 1586 01:25:12,160 --> 01:25:15,240 Speaker 8: no data shows that, and the reaction to this avoid 1587 01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:21,360 Speaker 8: event shows definitively and demonstrably for all time that it 1588 01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:24,400 Speaker 8: is not a both sides problem, and it hasn't been 1589 01:25:24,479 --> 01:25:27,559 Speaker 8: for a very long time. If ever, we are the 1590 01:25:27,640 --> 01:25:32,040 Speaker 8: side of morality, strength and compunction and composure in a 1591 01:25:32,080 --> 01:25:35,599 Speaker 8: moment like this, and civility, and they are the side 1592 01:25:35,600 --> 01:25:40,160 Speaker 8: of anarchy. And so let this be an opportunity to 1593 01:25:40,240 --> 01:25:44,040 Speaker 8: display the differences and to own to own them. I've 1594 01:25:44,040 --> 01:25:46,400 Speaker 8: seen some people godliness versus godlessness. 1595 01:25:46,479 --> 01:25:49,800 Speaker 16: I totally agree civilization versus chaos and anarchy. And I 1596 01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:52,760 Speaker 16: would also say this, I've seen some people because I've 1597 01:25:52,760 --> 01:25:55,160 Speaker 16: seen you know, the left killed Charlie or whatever, and 1598 01:25:55,160 --> 01:25:57,559 Speaker 16: they'll go to the left question mark excuse me, it 1599 01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:00,920 Speaker 16: was some deranged kid out of Utah. No, I think 1600 01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:01,719 Speaker 16: you're making a point. 1601 01:26:01,720 --> 01:26:01,880 Speaker 13: Now. 1602 01:26:01,920 --> 01:26:07,599 Speaker 16: I am very clear that speech. You know, for example, 1603 01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:11,360 Speaker 16: Bernie Sanders supporter shoots Steve Scullies. I did not blame 1604 01:26:11,439 --> 01:26:14,000 Speaker 16: Bernie for that. That's not what I'm saying. But I 1605 01:26:14,040 --> 01:26:18,760 Speaker 16: am saying that, Yes, I put the onus of the 1606 01:26:18,800 --> 01:26:23,320 Speaker 16: culpability obviously on the shooter. But to your point, this 1607 01:26:23,479 --> 01:26:26,200 Speaker 16: is not a both sides issue. There's some used to 1608 01:26:26,200 --> 01:26:28,120 Speaker 16: talk about no stats support it. They keep pointing to 1609 01:26:28,200 --> 01:26:31,040 Speaker 16: some ad L study, but like that is I mean 1610 01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:36,000 Speaker 16: that that is the most grotesque presentation of data that 1611 01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:38,439 Speaker 16: that is known to man. I mean, it's completely garbage. 1612 01:26:38,479 --> 01:26:41,800 Speaker 21: But they created this environment, right, I will blame the 1613 01:26:41,880 --> 01:26:44,000 Speaker 21: left for creating an environment. When you tell people that 1614 01:26:44,040 --> 01:26:47,519 Speaker 21: Trump is Hitler continuously, yes, and then you tell people 1615 01:26:47,520 --> 01:26:50,720 Speaker 21: that Charlie Kirk helped get Hitler elected to the presidency 1616 01:26:50,720 --> 01:26:52,360 Speaker 21: of the United then what can't you justify? 1617 01:26:52,439 --> 01:26:52,599 Speaker 12: Yeah? 1618 01:26:52,600 --> 01:26:54,879 Speaker 1: And then Charlie's the next Hitler, Right, That's what they said. 1619 01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:57,760 Speaker 16: Exactly, So they do get some blame the Hitler youth. 1620 01:26:57,840 --> 01:26:59,400 Speaker 16: I can't I can't tell you how many times turning 1621 01:26:59,400 --> 01:27:01,960 Speaker 16: point has been called Hitler youth. We're gonna take a 1622 01:27:02,120 --> 01:27:11,960 Speaker 16: radio break. We'll keep going on the stream. 1623 01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:15,439 Speaker 14: This movement will not be silenced. You're listening to the 1624 01:27:15,560 --> 01:27:16,559 Speaker 14: Charlie Kirk Show. 1625 01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:19,160 Speaker 16: All right, welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show. We're 1626 01:27:19,160 --> 01:27:22,200 Speaker 16: having a I think an important conversation I will I 1627 01:27:22,280 --> 01:27:25,400 Speaker 16: just want to like appendit with just one thought though, 1628 01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:32,280 Speaker 16: that is fast. It strikes me that Charlie Kirk's legacy 1629 01:27:32,920 --> 01:27:36,800 Speaker 16: and the harvest spiritually in both in our country that 1630 01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:40,679 Speaker 16: we are seeing from this around the world has been 1631 01:27:40,960 --> 01:27:46,479 Speaker 16: so extraordinarily huge. It strikes me how little I've thought 1632 01:27:47,120 --> 01:27:52,160 Speaker 16: of the shooter. Yes, how small a character he is 1633 01:27:53,000 --> 01:27:53,880 Speaker 16: in this saga. 1634 01:27:54,160 --> 01:27:57,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, Larry Arnes commentary yesterday was really something on that. 1635 01:27:57,600 --> 01:27:59,439 Speaker 16: So I didn't hear it. I was working. What did 1636 01:27:59,439 --> 01:28:00,439 Speaker 16: he say? So? 1637 01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:02,040 Speaker 1: Larry Arne said. 1638 01:28:02,040 --> 01:28:04,320 Speaker 16: Is the president of Hillsdale College. For those who don't 1639 01:28:04,360 --> 01:28:07,000 Speaker 16: know this audience should know. But for those who are 1640 01:28:07,040 --> 01:28:09,200 Speaker 16: unaffiliated uninitiated to. 1641 01:28:09,160 --> 01:28:11,240 Speaker 1: This, he said that. 1642 01:28:13,800 --> 01:28:17,679 Speaker 8: What threatens evil are good and moral people that have being, 1643 01:28:18,680 --> 01:28:22,599 Speaker 8: And Charlie had being, and an assassin has no being. 1644 01:28:23,600 --> 01:28:26,960 Speaker 8: They must take the being of someone else, the energy 1645 01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:31,720 Speaker 8: of someone else. Uh and and that the assassin, the assassin, 1646 01:28:31,920 --> 01:28:36,880 Speaker 8: the those with being when they are assassinated grow stronger 1647 01:28:36,880 --> 01:28:41,920 Speaker 8: and the assassin dies. And my team, I know that 1648 01:28:41,960 --> 01:28:44,479 Speaker 8: we can get the actual exact quote here. I think 1649 01:28:44,479 --> 01:28:46,639 Speaker 8: it's worth actually saying it, or perhaps there's the clip 1650 01:28:46,680 --> 01:28:47,559 Speaker 8: of Larry Arn't saying it. 1651 01:28:47,560 --> 01:28:49,439 Speaker 1: His comments were only like two minutes long. But it 1652 01:28:49,479 --> 01:28:51,320 Speaker 1: was a profound point. It's a beautiful point. 1653 01:28:51,360 --> 01:28:54,679 Speaker 8: Alex Danny like it was a beautiful point and said, 1654 01:28:54,760 --> 01:28:56,720 Speaker 8: you know, spoken in a very subtle and soft and 1655 01:28:56,760 --> 01:28:57,360 Speaker 8: somber way. 1656 01:28:57,680 --> 01:29:00,519 Speaker 1: You know, Larry Arns is very the philosophic. 1657 01:29:00,479 --> 01:29:02,840 Speaker 8: Yea individual, but it was it was a wonderful way 1658 01:29:02,880 --> 01:29:04,320 Speaker 8: to say that to your point. 1659 01:29:04,439 --> 01:29:08,960 Speaker 16: Yeah, it has no being this. This does not negate 1660 01:29:09,040 --> 01:29:12,920 Speaker 16: this whole conversation that we were having before about how 1661 01:29:12,960 --> 01:29:15,800 Speaker 16: important it is that we get to the root of 1662 01:29:15,800 --> 01:29:20,360 Speaker 16: this problem right and when you we must reject the 1663 01:29:20,360 --> 01:29:24,160 Speaker 16: premise that this is both sides correct. Both sides do 1664 01:29:24,360 --> 01:29:27,479 Speaker 16: have some fringy characters. I'm not going to say that's 1665 01:29:27,479 --> 01:29:30,760 Speaker 16: not true. I think we'll all admit it. But in uh, 1666 01:29:31,040 --> 01:29:36,759 Speaker 16: just proportion to each side's size, it is far larger 1667 01:29:36,760 --> 01:29:39,479 Speaker 16: on the left. I think everybody knows that intuitively. I 1668 01:29:39,520 --> 01:29:43,360 Speaker 16: think what we're seeing based on the reaction. All you 1669 01:29:43,360 --> 01:29:45,040 Speaker 16: have to do is look at the difference between what 1670 01:29:45,160 --> 01:29:48,280 Speaker 16: happened after George Floyd and what happened after Charlie Kirk. 1671 01:29:48,840 --> 01:29:50,920 Speaker 16: That's all you have to I mean there is You 1672 01:29:50,960 --> 01:29:54,640 Speaker 16: cannot show me a statistic that will convince me. I 1673 01:29:54,640 --> 01:29:56,720 Speaker 16: don't care how doctored up it is. I don't care 1674 01:29:56,760 --> 01:30:00,000 Speaker 16: if the ad L puts it out twenty times. You 1675 01:30:00,439 --> 01:30:04,080 Speaker 16: this is the proof your eyes have seen the truth 1676 01:30:04,360 --> 01:30:07,960 Speaker 16: that we are not reacting that way because we know Jesus, 1677 01:30:08,439 --> 01:30:11,519 Speaker 16: we know that we will be held accountable upon our 1678 01:30:11,560 --> 01:30:14,000 Speaker 16: death for the evil things that we do unless we 1679 01:30:14,080 --> 01:30:18,120 Speaker 16: confess and we repent. And secondly, we are on the 1680 01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:23,920 Speaker 16: side of civilization, building, creating, and you know the anarchists, 1681 01:30:24,479 --> 01:30:27,240 Speaker 16: they're nihilists. They don't care about those things. We're trying 1682 01:30:27,280 --> 01:30:30,240 Speaker 16: to build a country for our children to inherit that 1683 01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:33,040 Speaker 16: will be safe and beautiful and good. And so if 1684 01:30:33,040 --> 01:30:36,280 Speaker 16: we would have taken this energy and turned it into 1685 01:30:36,320 --> 01:30:40,519 Speaker 16: an anarchy moment, into a revenge moment, that would have 1686 01:30:40,560 --> 01:30:44,120 Speaker 16: spelled doom for our nation and our nation our side 1687 01:30:44,320 --> 01:30:47,920 Speaker 16: loves this nation, and that full circle is why what 1688 01:30:48,240 --> 01:30:51,479 Speaker 16: Erica Kirk did on that stage last night was so 1689 01:30:51,720 --> 01:30:54,720 Speaker 16: profoundly important and why I tweeted in the moment that 1690 01:30:54,720 --> 01:30:57,799 Speaker 16: that is one of the most profound and important moments 1691 01:30:57,880 --> 01:31:01,000 Speaker 16: in American history because it means America has a chance. 1692 01:31:01,080 --> 01:31:03,599 Speaker 16: It means that the Gospel will continue to go forth. 1693 01:31:03,800 --> 01:31:06,280 Speaker 16: It means that we have given license to the Holy 1694 01:31:06,320 --> 01:31:09,200 Speaker 16: Spirit to fill more hearts and minds. We have chosen 1695 01:31:09,240 --> 01:31:10,759 Speaker 16: and said yes to Jesus. 1696 01:31:11,160 --> 01:31:13,639 Speaker 21: And you could hear a pin drop when she said 1697 01:31:13,680 --> 01:31:16,160 Speaker 21: those words and announced that she was going to forgive 1698 01:31:16,200 --> 01:31:18,520 Speaker 21: this radical, unhinged man. 1699 01:31:19,880 --> 01:31:21,120 Speaker 15: The ten seconds before it. 1700 01:31:21,680 --> 01:31:23,400 Speaker 21: In my head, I didn't know the speech, you know, 1701 01:31:23,439 --> 01:31:25,320 Speaker 21: I didn't know the speech beforehand or what was going 1702 01:31:25,360 --> 01:31:28,519 Speaker 21: to happen. But in my head I was thinking, there's 1703 01:31:28,520 --> 01:31:30,920 Speaker 21: no way, like when you when you started to see 1704 01:31:30,920 --> 01:31:32,920 Speaker 21: her kind of drift in that direction in the speech 1705 01:31:33,000 --> 01:31:35,559 Speaker 21: that she was going to forgive this person. But it 1706 01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:38,760 Speaker 21: was like the whole room kind of came to a 1707 01:31:38,760 --> 01:31:41,639 Speaker 21: realization as she was building up to it, and we all, 1708 01:31:41,800 --> 01:31:43,360 Speaker 21: I mean at least you know, the people around me, 1709 01:31:43,439 --> 01:31:46,360 Speaker 21: we were there's no way she's going to say this. 1710 01:31:46,360 --> 01:31:51,160 Speaker 21: This is this is eleven days ago, this is just 1711 01:31:51,240 --> 01:31:54,760 Speaker 21: had her world taken from her in Charlie And when 1712 01:31:54,800 --> 01:31:58,680 Speaker 21: she said the words, do you guys remember the applause 1713 01:31:58,760 --> 01:32:01,360 Speaker 21: like the approach, It wasn't just, it wasn't just, it 1714 01:32:01,479 --> 01:32:03,360 Speaker 21: was like almost in shock. 1715 01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:04,600 Speaker 15: People were applauding. 1716 01:32:05,280 --> 01:32:06,920 Speaker 5: It was very so much applause that made it. 1717 01:32:06,920 --> 01:32:10,000 Speaker 23: On the graphic the translation up there, she's got her 1718 01:32:10,040 --> 01:32:11,679 Speaker 23: words and it says, applause. 1719 01:32:11,720 --> 01:32:15,080 Speaker 16: I actually have an image. The team has it. I 1720 01:32:15,120 --> 01:32:17,240 Speaker 16: sent it in the chat actually because I noticed the 1721 01:32:17,240 --> 01:32:22,280 Speaker 16: same thing. It is, uh yeah, the I think it's 1722 01:32:22,720 --> 01:32:26,240 Speaker 16: pick seven or sixty five, sixty five show the actual 1723 01:32:26,439 --> 01:32:31,360 Speaker 16: image and underneath it says applause that that man, that 1724 01:32:31,479 --> 01:32:35,160 Speaker 16: young man, I forgive him, and what she said before that. 1725 01:32:35,400 --> 01:32:37,720 Speaker 16: By the way, Benny and I know because you've been 1726 01:32:38,520 --> 01:32:41,200 Speaker 16: in the fox hole with us along so many of 1727 01:32:41,200 --> 01:32:44,679 Speaker 16: these years, that is exactly the type of young man 1728 01:32:44,880 --> 01:32:49,000 Speaker 16: that we have pulled like out of this this nihilism 1729 01:32:49,479 --> 01:32:52,080 Speaker 16: over the years. And these men would come into instead 1730 01:32:52,120 --> 01:32:55,599 Speaker 16: of getting buried in some internet rabbit hole where they 1731 01:32:55,720 --> 01:32:57,920 Speaker 16: just want to burn it all down and you know, 1732 01:32:58,320 --> 01:33:01,280 Speaker 16: never contribute to anything positive, they would come in to 1733 01:33:01,360 --> 01:33:04,160 Speaker 16: turning point and realize they had a place in the movement, 1734 01:33:04,200 --> 01:33:07,040 Speaker 16: that the movement gets stronger when you join it, and 1735 01:33:07,080 --> 01:33:09,599 Speaker 16: they would find friends, and they would find meaning and purpose, 1736 01:33:09,680 --> 01:33:13,400 Speaker 16: be a part of something bigger than yourself. And when 1737 01:33:13,439 --> 01:33:15,320 Speaker 16: she let in with that, I just I was so 1738 01:33:15,400 --> 01:33:19,599 Speaker 16: struck because I was like, yes, this is these are 1739 01:33:20,000 --> 01:33:22,679 Speaker 16: these young men that have been so villainized. She spoke 1740 01:33:22,760 --> 01:33:25,360 Speaker 16: directly to them, and she said, you do not have 1741 01:33:25,479 --> 01:33:28,479 Speaker 16: to be you know, you do not have to cower 1742 01:33:29,120 --> 01:33:31,960 Speaker 16: at the prospect of life. You don't have to cower 1743 01:33:32,000 --> 01:33:35,000 Speaker 16: that our elites have robbed this generation of so much 1744 01:33:35,040 --> 01:33:40,040 Speaker 16: wealth and opportunity, and for the incumbent older generation, you 1745 01:33:40,240 --> 01:33:43,280 Speaker 16: have agency be a part of something bigger than yourself. 1746 01:33:43,320 --> 01:33:45,320 Speaker 16: I just keep thinking of that refrain in my heart 1747 01:33:45,680 --> 01:33:48,840 Speaker 16: because that was the through line. Because we are going 1748 01:33:48,880 --> 01:33:50,880 Speaker 16: to miss some and there will be some men that 1749 01:33:50,920 --> 01:33:53,280 Speaker 16: are left on the sideline, but God, I pray we 1750 01:33:53,280 --> 01:33:55,920 Speaker 16: can get so many of them, especially after this moment. 1751 01:33:56,320 --> 01:33:59,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, Andrew that you were a father, And 1752 01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:03,360 Speaker 8: this was something Charlie, upon my wedding, was constantly texting, 1753 01:34:03,360 --> 01:34:05,080 Speaker 8: when you're gonna become a dat, when you gonna a debt, 1754 01:34:05,080 --> 01:34:07,240 Speaker 8: when you're gonna become a father And the reason why 1755 01:34:07,320 --> 01:34:09,559 Speaker 8: he was constantly texting me that is because nothing will 1756 01:34:09,640 --> 01:34:12,160 Speaker 8: drive purpose more in your life as a young man 1757 01:34:12,760 --> 01:34:15,799 Speaker 8: than holding your newborn child. If you want to witness 1758 01:34:16,280 --> 01:34:18,479 Speaker 8: an actual miracle in life, and it can only be 1759 01:34:18,560 --> 01:34:21,240 Speaker 8: witnessed by you. And so the amazing thing about fatherhood 1760 01:34:21,600 --> 01:34:23,759 Speaker 8: and what parenthood is that only you see the miracle. 1761 01:34:23,800 --> 01:34:25,400 Speaker 8: There's some miracles that are seen by Oh wow, look 1762 01:34:25,439 --> 01:34:26,679 Speaker 8: at all his bread on this hillside. 1763 01:34:26,680 --> 01:34:28,479 Speaker 1: There was no bread here, Jesus pray. Now there's a 1764 01:34:28,479 --> 01:34:29,559 Speaker 1: bunch of bread. That's cool. 1765 01:34:29,680 --> 01:34:32,280 Speaker 8: Look at all his fish, Like, that's a miracle everyone saw. 1766 01:34:32,680 --> 01:34:34,720 Speaker 8: It's parent you like, hold your newborn child. And this 1767 01:34:34,800 --> 01:34:37,439 Speaker 8: is a special miracle that God gives just you and 1768 01:34:37,479 --> 01:34:39,720 Speaker 8: your wife, just you, right, Not even the people in 1769 01:34:39,720 --> 01:34:41,680 Speaker 8: the hospital share with it, really because they've seen it 1770 01:34:41,720 --> 01:34:44,479 Speaker 8: a million times. No, it's this like moment the whole 1771 01:34:44,520 --> 01:34:46,559 Speaker 8: world closes in and every father knows what I'm talking 1772 01:34:46,560 --> 01:34:50,760 Speaker 8: about here.
